Good for you, Rick_H!!!

Now YOUR ass is covered for those repairs!

Has your company looked into the "R" stamp, and whether your work will ever require it?

Yes I am glad its done to be honest I hate tests...lol i decieded to free hand the test instead of walking the cup. Walking the cup is great but you dont always have the room, so i did it left and right handed.

They are investigating it, from what I can tell I have raised questions that may have been overlooked in the past...at least until I started taking work from the contractor.

The company who actually does the pm and inspections on the boiler are R stamped but to the best of my knowledge the repairs from the boiler out were not done by a r stamped contractor.

I wanted to make sure my ass was covered along with my employer.

Steve- could I borrow that spec copy you have I'll return it when I'm done ;) I'll pm you my email.
